I love the chocolate coated super greens bar and my teenage daughter does too! When we don't have time to eat or just need a snack, the greens bar fills us with wholesome high energy living food.

I love the 365 Veggie Chips. I used to be a junk food junkie and any kind of chips has long been my downfall but these saved me. Thank you!

I absolutely love the 365 sodas. I have a major sweet tooth and those are way sweeter than any of the name brand sodas. An added bonus is that they don't have any caffiene in them so I don't stay up all night. I also really like the popcorn, I was actually telling one of my friends last night that it's the best popcorn ever and highly addictive.

Went into the new store on State Street, Santa Barbara, very nice. I appreciate all the selection for non-toxic cleaners. I bought the furniture polish you carry and it cleans well without a lot of residue and I liked your seventh generation window cleaner.

I love the 365 pinto beans, no salt. Very tender and tasty and great for those watching the sodium intake!!!

My favorite 365 Everday Value product is your Organic Green Tea. What awesome quality at an awesome price. I bought 1/2 gallon glass jars and I line 3 of them up with two tea bags in each, fill each with boiling water and some Stevia, and put them in the fridge after they've cooled...it makes GREAT iced tea!

365 Smooth Almond Butter! Oh my god...so delicious! I slather it on everything!
10/20/2009 2:20:15 PM CDT
Without a doubt the spaghetti sauce. It beats any of the other supermarket brands! My family loves it.

Big fan of the WF private label

I am an addicted fan of 365 Crunchy Peanut Butter. I consider myself to be a connoisseur of Peanut Butter and have tried them all...but hands down this is my all time favorite. Whether paired with crackers, spread on apples, stuffed in celery or teamed with the old reliable standby jelly or jam...it stands out and makes my day. Thank goodness for 365 Crunchy Peanut Butter.

It has to be the extra virgin olive oil!

How did you know to picture exactly the product that is my favoite 365 item??! I love your 365 Extra Virgin Olive Oil, which always seems a terrific deal to me in terms of price for value. I typically use this olive oil for everything from making Italian dressing to coating small white potatoes by rolling them in the oil and baking them in a glass pan. It's the best!

NO DOUBT, 365 Chicken Broth!!! I have tried every brand of Organic Chicken Broth, none can hold a candle to it. Most are very fatty or have been over / under seasoned. With 365 there is no fat when cooking (especially in my soup pot) and I can add all my seasonings without hindering the taste from what is in the broth. PERFECT!!!!

My Favorite 365 product is the Tonic Water. It is the ONLY tonic water I have found that does not have HFCS and it tastes better than any other tonic water I have tried. I drive 2 hrs to get it - and of course stock up everything else as well. I love my trips to Whole Foods!!

The Virgin Coconut Oil.

The 365 Virgin Coconut Oil is by far my favorite product! It smells delicious and is a truly great cooking oil. I use it to make delicious pancakes and baked goods. It's also a fantastic moisturizer!

WITH OUT A DOUBT 365 evoo

My favorite use to be the 365 Soy Cream you all use to carry in the 1/2 gallon size. Now that you don't carry them anymore, my favorite is the 365 crackers because as a vegan you can't always find crackers that doesn't have something that you can't have and the sodium content is very good. I really like most of the 365 products because as I said as a vegan I find a lot of these products doesn't have dairy and I found it hard to find products with unbleached flour and things like that. So I like most of them.

I use so many 365 products that it is tuff to say which is my favorit. I have to say that I love the extra virgin olive oil. it is a great value for the price. I also love the 365 shower gels which are also great value products and smell great. And one other favorite is the 365 Texas Barbecue Sause, it taste great on so many things(chicken, beef, eggs, etc.). I have had many compliments on this sauce. Great price too!

My favorite 365 Everyday Value Product is Organic Black Beans. We are a health conscious family, and in comparing the nutritional value of your 365 brand to a major national brand, I found there to be a staggering difference in the sodium content. Over 300mg per serving! Thank you for bringing us great tasting, quality products that are good for us too.

It's hard to pick a favorite, but since you are forcing me...
I love the vitamins. They have just the right amount of vitamins and minerals. I also supplement with a 365 vitamin c in the evening.

My favorite 365 Everyday Value product is the frozen blueberries. They are such high quality, you can't find anything comparable at any other local market. I use them in fruit smoothies I make every day as well as in many baked goods. I always have them on hand.
